    Stupidly, I've just spent a couple of hours writing a lengthy reply to Rafiq -- foolish I know -- when I've got a mass of marking to do for tomorrow. Oops.

    I don't really post anywhere else very much, it seems that the internet is a cold dead place -- rather like revleft is something.

    Yeah. I've tried to tell him that if he want's anybody to read his posts he will have to actually write them in coherent language. But it doesn't make a difference. Your return reminded me of an old thread (which I've dug up -- top of history now) in which rafiq described Stalin's talking about himself in the third person as weird. Revleft has broken the poor lamb. He used to be able to convey ideas in one or two lines.

    I'm afraid to say that my view on appeasement maybe a little more nuanced than it was but, like yours, hasn't changed that much. The more I read about it the more I'm convinced I was right all along. I was actually reading the official history of the British JIC and thought of our argument all those years ago.

    Hi, nice to see you back. I miss the days on this board when we used to spar about history. Not it seems every time you pop you're head around the corner it is to try to bash some sense into people.

    PS. I hope you've stopped taking that dreadful Finkel and Leibovitz book seriously. It really is nonsense.

    We were all thinking it, but none of us could articulate it so eloquently.

    Yeah, the level of debate and participation has reduced considerably. The board gets new members, but they just don't stick around or bring a particularly in depth knowledge base, so the place is suffering. I was unbanned in 2012 (I think), and it's actually got worse since then.

    Your posts to Rafiq were truly beautiful.

    ThesisQuasar, someone from the Revleft chat, only posts in chat, even though the things he brings up belong in the Forums, but he refuses to post anywhere else but chat. Anyways, here's something he said, and knowing your knowledge on the subject, I want your opinion on the matter.

    "My main critique of the USSR econoy hasn't been that planning is "ALL bad", even if it may come across as that. Rather, it has been that there was way too much planning, and the economy was not an efficient hybrid of partial planning and socially/worker ran markets. by the time markets were reintroduced, they were not reintroduced in the 'social' sense, such as in market socialism, which was the problem. They reintroduced capitalism, but not social markets.
    planning, if done in and of itself,and nothing else, sacrifices productivity in other areas of the economy for excellent results where it focuses on, but often abysmal results where it doesn't focus."

    In this post, you posted a link towards a pdf from Rapidshare. It's broken.

    Hey, good job in the debate on the Connolly thread I started. I sure as he'll didn't think a flame war would develop so quickly.

    you sound like a well-read person, may I ask what you owe this to? Do you have any academic connection or is it just readings on your own?
